Well in school I will be taking my Linux course and it looks like they use Fedora. So I burned Fedora 10, since the book appears to come with Fedora 2 which seems to be ancient. I need USB for my phone and iPod!

So anyways today I installed it in a VM just to get used to it before I must use it.

I was thinking about using Ubuntu for this unit as I have experience with it, but that is the reason why I am not using it. I want to learn and try another distro, and this is the perfect opportunity!

EDIT: Well 5GB isn't enough for Fedora so I had to remove packages to make room. I think I removed a package it needs to start because my Fedora VM won't start...

I also discussed that it's best to use Fedora as it is most likely more true to the book than Ubuntu

It's seems alright. It's basically the same thing as Ubuntu, a Linux kernel with XWindows running Gnome.

I fail to see any reason why to use Fedora when I can just install Ubuntu, but maybe there are long time Fedora users who say "Why would I install Ubuntu when I can just install Fedora"

Some of the programs are the same (Totem as the movie player, Firefox for internet) but some things are different.

Like in Ubuntu you type
Code:
apt-get install whatever

and in Fedora you type
Code:
yum install whatever


My VM doesn't boot now though. I had to make free space so I uninstalled a bunch of stuff and have a feeling I removed something it needs. I made a 5 GB virtual hard drive and that was hardly enough (I had 20 MB left), and Fedora takes longer than Ubuntu to install.

But that's just from my experience so far...

What's the best way to clean my 100% cotton fedora? I have dogs, so their hair is in it, which i manage to get out with a lint roller. And their are some minor stains.

Are you a bot or a noob (no offense) but the Fedora we are talking about here is not made of cotton. It's a Linux distro...
